When Lu Li woke up, the room was still dark and oppressive, and there was almost no light, so he picked up the alarm clock at the bedside and glanced at it, and found that it was only four fifty, no wonder it was still dark around, and there was still a period of time before dawn. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

There were still two hours left before his usual wake-up time—at least an hour and a half—and his whole head felt groggy and unable to function. So, Lu Li closed his eyes again, letting his tense and burning brain return to relaxation mode again, and his tight breathing slowed down again.

Although it was still some time before dawn, the pasture outside the window had already woken up, and Cole's voice could be faintly heard shouting, "Grapefruit, grapes, come here", the deep sound was like a ship cutting through the icy lake, the sound of hunting wind and rushing water passed by, and the thick night began to ripple outward.

Immediately afterwards, a sigh of breathing could be heard, only a fragmented sound, which was supposed to be Brandon, Jessica, Tony, and others talking.

The noise in the tranquility bursts out with vitality, wonderful and vivid, as if you can feel the process of the slow recovery of all things, and in a trance, the call from nature begins to flow rapidly in the blood.

So, Lu Li reopened his eyes, sat up slowly, stretched a big lazy waist, and Bucky, who was sleeping at the head of the bed, stood up smartly, and then nervously circled around, raised his head to look at Lu Li, and then looked at the rich night around him, and finally circled back and curled up into a hair ball next to the pillow.

When I left the bed and came to the window, I could see the dark sky, and the black pasture, which was not an ordinary familiar sight, and the blue and green seemed to have disappeared, leaving only a large expanse of black, like thick ink; However, the pure black has different layers, spreading deep and shallow, as if it is a Chinese/Chinese ink painting, and the simple ink color outlines unimaginable grandeur and delicacy.

Surprisingly, Lu Li likes such pastures. In the quiet, there is peace, but the dark tide hidden in the darkness is silently surging.

Today is the day of the second half of the cowboy conference, and it is also the day when Yunding Ranch officially enters the market.

It's a big day. In order to set up the booth and welcome the guests, the ranch naturally could not wait until eight or nine o'clock to slowly make its way to the small town of Bandera, the holiday mode was no longer applicable, they had to arrive at the site before half past six and start to prepare.

After a quick battle bath, when he came downstairs, Teddy greeted him, Lu Li touched the old man's head, and saw the pile of crushed paper scraps at the top of the stairs in the corner of his eyes, "This time, whose documents are suffering?" Lu Li has accepted Teddy's love of biting documents, and he has long learned to put them away.

Leaning down and picking up the pieces to look at, Lu Li couldn't help laughing, "Randy is probably going to cry and faint in the toilet." ”

This document belongs to Randy, who wrote it for today's show, counting the types and quantities of various vegetables, as well as market prices and stocks, and so on. It took Randy hours to make, but now it's been bitten to pieces by Teddy and turned completely into a pile of shredded paper.

It is not known if Randy left a backup.

Lu Li quickly swept up all the scraps of paper, threw them in the trash, and then went to the restaurant, where he simply filled his stomach with roasted toast and fried eggs, and it took less than five minutes to start and finish. Teddy had been crouching at Lu Li's feet, wagging his tail obediently, not begging for food, nor making a loud noise, just quietly waiting by his side.

Lu Li couldn't help laughing, "When Cole saw it, he was probably going to be sad again." Why didn't you go out with grapefruit and grapes today? ”

Lu Li was not a type of animal to be seen, even if he came to the ranch, he was still the same. However, there seems to be a bond between him and Teddy, and the two get along very easily and happily, and even, Teddy likes Lu Li more than Cole. You know, Cole is the one who has lived on the ranch for many years, and after Liz left, Cole has been taking care of Teddy.

Originally, Lu Li thought that this was his own illusion, but now it seems that it is a certainty.

Teddy's eyes narrowed, as if he was enjoying the touch of Lu Li, and the corners of his mouth whined. At this time, Bucky just walked down, Shi Shiran passed by, saw this scene, and then jumped on the table with a few steps, and patrolled around the side like a demonstration, that unpredictable look looked like disdain, and also like disdain.

Lu Li patted Teddy's head lightly, "See?" Bucky is complaining about you. After saying that, Lu Li couldn't help laughing, stood up, quickly put away the dinner plates, cleaned them, and left the main house quickly.

Standing outside, the cool air and the cold of dew poured into the lungs, and the whole person was suddenly refreshed, and the last trace of sleepiness left in the depths of the brain also disappeared. Lu Li couldn't help but stretch his waist greatly, and he could hear the joints ringing like bursting chestnuts, and the whole person became relaxed and full of vitality.

"Wang, Wang." There was a lively roar in the distance, followed by Jessica's laughing and crying voice, "Hop, hey, hop, don't mess with Hulk." ”

"Woohoo!" The shouts grew louder and louder, echoing under the navy blue sky, as if calling for the dawn to appear.

Stepping in the direction of the warehouse, Lu Li found that Teddy actually followed, while Bucky was wandering around the garden, like a king patrolling his territory, which made Lu Li laugh dumbly, "Bucky, are you sure you don't follow?" ”

"Meow," Bucky cried out in disgust, then jumped lightly onto the swing, climbed the plane tree, and curled up on the branch, looking condescendingly at the bustling hustle and bustle below, the king now beginning to examine the daily lives of his subjects.

Lu Li chuckled lightly, and walked towards the warehouse without pause, and at once he could see the roaring Hulk, and Jump was standing on his head, and his two front paws firmly grasped the stray hair on the top of Hulk's head.

Hulk jumped, jumping and jolting, and it looked a bit like a matador, and this sense of absurdity made Lu Li feel uncomfortable.

"What's wrong with him?" Jessica looked at Lu Li and said with an incredulous face.

Lu Li shrugged, "Because Teddy has accepted the reality, it's not challenging." ”

Li Yitong has already left for Los Angeles, and Hulk has stayed on the ranch and gradually adapted to life here. Surprisingly, Hulk and Hopping get along best, they have a good understanding with each other, and Hulk seems to be more willing to get along with Hopping than Grapefruit and Grape.

Now, the jump has begun to move in inches, and the proud little appearance is really unbearable, but it is helpless.

"Aren't you going to persuade?" Jessica glared, and Lu Li spread her hands, "I should be the worst option to solve this matter." ”

After a slight pause, Lu Li's head flashed, and he shouted, "Bucky! ”

He just shouted like this, and he could see that Jumping instantly let go of his hands, and then the momentum of inertia, he threw it out, and then landed on all fours, and ran out briskly, but it was just a blink of an eye, and it was already gone.

Hulk's reaction was a little sluggish, he didn't have time to stop, he circled several times, and then he stopped turning, looked up and down, left and right, and found no jumping figure, and then squatted in place, and began to wipe his nose with his front paws, I don't know if it was because he was tired of running just now.

Looking at this scene, Jessica and Lu Li were stunned, paused for a moment, and then both burst into laughter. The law of the food chain in nature is indeed universal, and this is true in any field, one thing descends one thing, forming a completed circle.

"Teddy, aren't you going to say something? You're the boss of this ranch. Jessica said in a raised voice, and Lu Li touched Teddy's head, "Man, aren't you going to say something?" ”

Teddy didn't understand at all, twisted his head, sniffed Lu Li's palm, and then began to lick it. That silly look made Lu Li and Jessica laugh again.

"Hey, you two, if you don't come to help, we're going to be in no time." Randy's voice came from behind, Lu Li turned his head, and then saw Randy carrying two large baskets.

All of these vegetables were harvested yesterday, just to ensure the amount of today's day's transactions. As for tomorrow's, we will harvest it again after returning from work this afternoon, and the booth will close at 3 p.m.

Since this was their first time at the booth, they had no idea how the market would react, and could only prepare based on Randy's estimates. In order to ensure the freshness of the vegetables, Randy prepares them to a minimum. But even then, they needed three pickup trucks – not vans – to get them there.

"If you can't make it, you can only pray that there will be more crowds in the afternoon." Lu Li was barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes, and said calmly, causing Randy to roll his eyes, and then Brandon and Cole also walked out, Lu Li rubbed the back of Teddy's neck, "But Randy is right, we need to get to work." Man, let's go. ”

Lu Li stepped forward and began to join the busy work. First vegetables, then cheese, and finally wine, the ranch dispatched four pickup trucks to ship all the goods.

In May, Jessica stayed on the ranch; This time, Brandon volunteered to stay - he was still worried about the thoroughbreds who had just joined the ranch.

Then, under the leadership of Lu Li, the expedition team marched towards the small town of Bandera.
